原文: -Do you like some music?
-Some.
译文[误]:-你喜欢音乐吗?
-有一点儿.
译文[正]:-你喜欢音乐吗?
-非常喜欢.
分析:译文中显然是弄错了Some的意义.
我们知道Some用于修饰单数名词,意为某个、某一.
当用于修饰复数名词或不可数名词,意为若干、一些；一点；少量的.
但原句里Some为副词,意思是'很,非常'.
与此类似的还有something.如:He drinks something fierce.他喝酒喝的很厉害.
此外,Some还有很多词义,形容词有6项,代词3项,副词3项.
所以,我们在翻译的时候一定首先要搞清楚词性,才不至于把意思弄错.
Some的复合词,somebody除了'某人'的意思外,还有'重要人物'的意思.
He always thinks himself somebody.
所以,原句可以翻译成:他一直自以为了不起.

1. If you are indoors, duck or drop down to the floor. Take cover under a sturdy desk, table or other furniture. Hold on to it and be prepared to move with it. Hold the position until the ground stops shaking and it is safe to move. Stay clear of windows, fireplaces, woodstoves, and heavy furniture or appliances that may fall over. Stay inside to avoid being injured by falling glass or building parts. If you are in a crowded area, take cover where you are. Stay calm and encourage others to do likewise.

American motorists appear to grow more dismayed every time they go to a gasoline station. The average price for a gallon of fuel rose nearly six cents in the past week alone, and is more than 50 cents higher than a year ago.
While consumers complain, others are pointing fingers. For Ray Carbone, who heads the New York-based energy trading firm Paramount Options, the issue boils down to three words: supply and demand. He notes that the world is consuming more fossil fuel each day, led by large, rapidly developing countries like China and India, at a time when global oil production is

Passage A:
1.
Once upon a time, there were four people. Their names were everybody, somebody, nobody and anybody. Whenever there was an important job to be done, everybody was sure that somebody would do it. Anybody could have done it, but nobody did it. Everybody got angry because it was everybody’s job. Everybody thought that somebody would do it, but nobody realized that nobody would do it. Consequently everybody blamed somebody when nobody did what anybody could have done.
